The Role

We're hiring an Assistant Fashion Designer to join the Blu Pepper design team.

A strong eye for women's fashion, silhouette, and product development

Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop (or similar tools)

Organized, reliable, and detail-oriented, especially in process-based, repetitive tasks

A dependable team player with clear, professional communication

Familiarity with ERP systems like NetSuite is a plus

Prior internship or experience in wholesale or production environments preferred
